That's not so unusual...I joined Verizon because my then-girlfriend (now Wifey!) was on it. Then I saw the Droid X, and haven't looked back.
You never know what will influence someone's decision. My wife prefers the iPhone (ptooey!) over Android phones because it fits better in her hand. She knows little, and cares less, about the relative specs.

Choosing a carrier based on a phone is bad enough, but choosing just based on the color of a phone already available on all carriers?

Ha! This is a fun discussion!
YES, I think it's fine to choose a carrier based on the color of the phone, especially since the phone is available on the top five carriers...
After all, some people choose carriers because of call quality, or customer service, or 4G coverage. Why should a unique phone color be less important than those other criteria? As technologically advanced as they are, phones are still a very personal device; people choose them for personal reasons that are as unique as they themselves are.
How many people switched to AT&T back when the iPhone (ptooey!) first came out and was exclusive to them? I'm sure plenty of them didn't care (at the time) about call quality issues...they just wanted that "cool" iPhone (ptooey!), and AT&T was the only way.

Besides, he did say that they had already decided to move to AT&T, so it's not like the phone color is really the only reason...:biggrin:

What's with the troll? Do you not have anything better to do? I want the gS3. Verizon is dropping unlimited data and forcing people to buy the phone full price if you want to keep your current plan. So if i have to change my plan in order to get the subsidized phone then i am better off going with att because they offer the 3gig data package vs. 2gig on vzw network. ATT might have a red Version of the gs3 so that makes it a even better decision for me. Does that make since to you now?
